setting the hardware clock

[Charles Hallenbeck]

This is crazy, but it seems my HW clock refuses to be set. I
normally do not ever set it, since my shutdown procedure does
that for me, saving the system time to the hardware clock, and
for a few days that step has been hanging so my shutdown
procedure never runs to completion!!!

What can be happening? What are the commands I can run as root to
set the HW clock from a running system?

Thanks -- Chuck
